A new dispute has surfaced between Nigerian senator Ned Nwoko and his wife, actress Regina Daniels. In a statement released on Instagram, Nwoko accused Daniels of substance abuse and violent behaviour. The accusation stems from a viral video in which Daniels asserted that her husband’s thugs had attacked her.
Ned Nwoko’s Statement
In his post, Senator Nwoko said:
“Regina was not always like this. Her current battle with drug and alcohol abuse is the root of our problem. She must continue her rehabilitation program, or I fear for her life and safety.”
He added that:
“Now she has moved to a place where she will have unrestricted access to drugs. I have other wives, and none will ever accuse me of violence. Regina is the violent one here, slapping and hitting 3 staff in the past 48 hours and destroying property, including cars and windows, for no just cause.”
According to him:
“The truth is, I have set a clear condition for her to accept rehab in Asokoro or outside Nigeria, especially Jordan, where she will not have access to drugs. A clear-headed Regina would have taken Moon to the hospital, but instead she even threatened to kill our resident nurse (for exposing her drugs abuse).”
He further alleged that:
“While I took Moon to the hospital, a scene of chaos unfolded at home, orchestrated by Sammy, Regina’s main drug supplier. Another known supplier of drugs to Regina is the tiny evil devil called Ann.”
Nwoko stated that the couple’s disagreement stems from Daniel’s alleged refusal to continue her rehabilitation programme.
Regina Daniels’ Response
In a video that circulated online hours before Nwoko’s post, Regina Daniels appeared distressed and said she was tired of domestic violence.
“I am tired of domestic violence… in Ned’s house, I am nobody, but in my home, I am a queen,” she said.
Daniels claimed in the video that her husband sent thugs to attack her.
Background
Nwoko and Daniels married in 2019 and have two children together. Their relationship has received significant public attention due to their age difference and social status.
The recent dispute has led to allegations of both substance abuse and domestic violence, though none of the claims have been independently verified. There has been no official statement from law enforcement authorities regarding the matter.
Current Situation
As of now, Daniels has not issued any further response to Nwoko’s allegations. No police report or court filing related to the claims has been made public.
The situation remains under observation, and both parties are yet to provide evidence to support their respective claims.
